Dream

My mom was giving me a punishment for something and that punishment was going through trash to find the thing I accidentally binned. So I keep going through trash until I find a package that I accidentally binned (not what I was looking for). It was a package from temu, do i go upstairs with it and open it. There i saw a lot of red boxes with Chinese letters on them. They weren't all read but they had images on them. There was one box that said "outdoor lamp" and I thought to myself that I must've orded an outdoor lamp accidentally. But then I keep looking and I see a box that looks like it had a screen protector for my old phone on it but when I open it, it had the exact same model of my old phone in it! I was surprised! I thought to myself that I must've spent way too much on this. I start up the phone and I see that I'm in a Minecraft world made by temu (the company that shipped me the phone) to test out how good the phone is, it wasemt bad I must say, but I wanted to leave Minecraft and see the rest of the phone. When I finally did leave Minecraft, my objectives changed. I was gonna finish my punishment, and then open the rest of the packages. So I go to the bin area where it was dark and all the trash bags were located and I keep looking through them. I find that in one of them, there's stuff I can sell so I call out to my mom and she's very happy about this. She tells me to keep looking through the for that item I accidentally threw away so I do, now that I've found it I don't care, I keep looking for valuables. It's as if each bag I go through has more and more electronics or manuals that I can sell. Suddenly I get teleported to my bedroom I had as a child and I'm opening the trash bags there. There's less and less trash but more and more things I can sell. The more loot I find the more my mom helps me, she would bring the trash bags in and made sure we weren't caught rummaging through our neighbours trash. I kept thinking to myself "wow, if I was my neighbours I would sell this stuff, they must be rich to not sell this". When I get to the last bag, there no trash in it, just things I can sell. The atmosphere looks very dark yellow because of the lightbulb thats emitting that colour. My mom looked happy and I told myself were gonna be rich. While I was searching through thoughs bags I felt a bit stressed not to get caught.

Dream

I was locked up in some school detention as an adult. My parents came to see me and brought my dog, Spencer. I looked at Spencer and he was in bad shape. Half his fur was missing and he seemed to be blind. I wasn't mad at my parents since he gets anxiety but this was to raw skin. He becomes even worse and I thought he died. I rushed him to the on campus veterinary center and they gave him vaccines due them thinking the was due to vaccines. I then rushed him to Out West Veterinary Urgent care, where I normally work at. Somehow the clinic was also located in this school. Dr. Brooks came to me as I waited in the corner. I kept trying wait to see if he recovered but the doctor asked me for a CPR status. I always told Joseph,my boyfriend, that I want him to euthanize Spencer when it comes to time. I cried and told the doctor CPR until we can find Joseph. I searched everywhere. One of my coworkers called me and asked if I was going to the play rehearsal tonight and I told him Spencer might not make it tonight so I'm dealing with that. My coworker showed no response and went on stage. I was still trying to find Joseph very manic. In my dream Joseph name was replaced with Meliodis, a hero from an anime. I kept calling out for Meliodis and crying until he comes. I never found him.

All of a sudden 2 boys came inside and they start talking to us and they making arguments and they told them keep it calm. Children are sleeping while they were talking and it was lots of 10 around outside. The weather is very bad like storm is coming.

It seems like there is something is going like like earthquake then stopped and then when I looked outside I saw two other houses other side of street they are partly gone into the Earth and they were disappeared. I told my mother wow look at her The other one of the in the basement of those houses. I kept my money and I told my mother wow look at the other side. The houses are gone but the part I was saving my money there is still there why we were talking.

Dream

People Out Of Context, European Labyrinth Cities, Victorian 1-Story House” Dream 24 Oct 2024 Listening to Jim Kwik lecture. He notes how it’s always different phenomenon when you see and know someone in one context, then you completely don’t recognize them in another soaps, and then it’s weird seeing them in that other context as a completely different human being. Looking for building for a class topic subject but after exploring one aspect first I get lost looking got the next building I’m supposed to be in to get more information. It’s an old city and some parts are roads while others are just buildings with courtyards and walking areas but no means of getting out. At first I don’t realize that all the buildings are like this so I don’t want to turn around, but as I keep walking I realize they all the buildings and their squares are probably going to be like this. I believe I noted that they were European in architecture in the dream. I decide to stop in building and ask for directions. There’s no one in the first room, and as I’m about to cross from the second room into the third room (both rooms have a set of 3 stairs into a raised area, along with a door to each other), I see a tall man who is about to use the entrance on the other side of the room to be next room as well (these rooms have multiple entrances). I start to ask him, but as I continue my question, I realize that he might not understand me— he’s paid no attention to me, dropped to all fours, and is crawling around on the floor. He’s tall and skinny and has a really narrow head that looks even thinner with his hair pointing out behind him. Not sure if there’s a language barrier or if he’s also mentally challenged, but it’s a confusing sight to see. I nearly trail off as I discover him doing this, but finish the thought as I see another woman come into the room. I head over to her and start to ask my question again, and she seems more with it and coherent. She doesn’t seem troubled by the crawling man, but I don’t remember if she addressed him (or even me about him) or not. Text Rachel asking for term. Later she replies: “the hurology test”

Panic

Dream

I was randomly accused of committing a crime that I didn't do. My husband, family, and friends were distressed and tried to protest, but nobody listened. I was forcibly taken by the government and sentenced to death, and told it would be painless. I was panicking but trying to come to terms with everything, but too much was happening all at once. I was taken aside and injected with something, but then strangely was set loose to the outside world to die rather than under supervision like it's normally done. I wandered into a nearby parking lot and found a secluded parking spot to lie down and die on. As I felt the drugs start to kick in I began to think about my friends and family, but especially my husband. The parking lot became busy and I kept getting up and trying to find a new spot to die peacefully. Despite having been told the death would be painless it isn't, I felt great painless, agony, and a spreading tingling across my body. I began to think about how nice it would be to be reincarnated and see my family again. I thought that perhaps it would be nice to reincarnate as a dog and be adopted by them, because dogs can't get falsely accused of such serious crimes. As my consciousness began to fade I suddenly had a thought, that even if I were to reincarnate there was no guarantee I would be with my family again. I began to feel panicked once more. I struggled to my feet and stumbled forward trying to find someone to help me, as the pain became excruciating and everything began to fade to black, panic consuming me.

Tive um sinho muito estranho, comecei na porta de um colégio particular que eu não lembrava aonde era ou qual era, que nunca vi na minha vida, estava procurando o famoso ator pornografico kid bengala para tirar uma selfie com ele, quando entrei no colégio me deparei com uma diretora que me permitiu permanecer lá para encontrá-lo, passado um tempo esperando fui avisado de que ele não estaria mais lá pois teve alguma urgência e foi embora, quando a secretaria falou comigo, eu expliquei que não estudava lá e estava procurando-o para tirar uma selfie, porém não podiam me ajudar, já que ele tinha saído, e que eu teria que retornar no próximo dia, assim me dirigi a saída e não me recordo aonde estava porém o sonho acabou, não sei porque sonhei com um colégio particular desconhecido e com o kid bengala ;-;

I had a dream that I was on vacation. I didn’t see people I knew in the dream. I had a bag with my wallet in it and it left it somewhere. I ended up on the dance floor and told the DJ that I was missing my bag with my wallet. If anyone found it, there would be a reward. He announced it and almost everyone started helping me look. People started bringing me bags that were not mine, but they were looking. Some people gave me gifts for some reason. I ended up eating with strangers. I’m not sure why I was with people I did not know. I did not seem to mind. I remember sitting at one table with a group of people who worked for the same company. The other table I sat with were all African Americans who were “cousins” and part of a sorority. I remember I started looking for my bag, and could not find it. I needed it so I could go back home.

Dreamt I returned to my old manager job. There was a new administrator there, an old coworker from another job. I spoke with her before coming back and she was aware of the previous issues. There was lots of activity. I was working for about a week. The coordinators below me (who were there before and I didn’t have a great relationship with) did not interact with me much. I noticed the schedule for the following week wasn’t done so I began to complete it. I went to find the coordinators to inform them that I started it. They were in the new supervisor’s office One coordinator began to chastise me, questioning why I was doing the schedule. She questioned my ability as if I’ve never done it before. I started to assert myself but she continued the disrespect. The other coordinator jumped in. The new supervisor stepped away. There was an event going on so people were entering the room and there was a crowd. The conversation got heated and they began to shove at me. I wanted to hit back but threatened to write them up. I walked out to find the supervisor but could not. One coordinator ran out ahead of me to catch her first. I went to find the administrator with no success as well. I went back to the supervisors office. Another coworker was in there. She called the supervisor and I spoke to her on the phone. She reminded me of the talk we had about their resistance but did not have a sense of urgency or was upset at their behavior. She offered no solution. I walked back towards them to figure it out on my own.

Sister
Violence and death

Dream

I had a bad dream about my sister, which I don’t know if it’s ever happened ? We were at some kind of bar/party and she left me inside the bar to go outside and I didn’t really think of anything of it thinking that she would be right back in. So I sat and talked to the people next to me for about an hour, and she never showed up. so I went outside to look for her and was shocked at the amount of people that were out there, it was gonna be difficult to find her. I walked around and it kind of reminded me of a camping site. There was tables with people at them, but there was also camper trailers and she could’ve been anywhere and I couldn’t find her. so I went back into the bar and the bartender if I could use the phone to call my mom to come and get me, they dialed the number for me and right as the phone starts ringing Melody walks in the door. I am so angry with her. She has left me inside this bar for hours and I had no idea how I was going to get home. I got physically violent with her and I picked her up and body slammed her onto the floor. She was in so much pain and I was so horrified at my actions that I immediately woke up. Nothing about this dream makes sense to me. We don’t drink and we would never be violent with each other.
